Homemade Pasta
Ingredients :
- whole wheat flour / atta - 1 cup ( 140 g )
- egg - 1 ( 50 g )
- water - 3 -4 tbs (45 - 60 ml )
- olive oil - 1 tbs ( 15 ml )
- combine all the ingredients and make a dough
- knead for 6 - 7 minutes
- allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes
- after 30 minutes roll out the dough into a very thin sheet
- when you lift the dough you should be able to see your hands through it
- cut the dough sheet into desired shape
- I made bow tie pasta ( butterfly shaped pasta ), for that cut the dough into 2 - 3 cm long strips, and press at the centre
- boil 2 litres of water
- add 1tsp salt
- add pasta and cook
- this homemade pasta doesn't need much time to cook,it will take approx 2 - 3 minutes only
- when it is done add directly into the sauce and mix well
